HeadCheese picked this match from the DDT/BJW New Year's Eve show for the Secret Santo project. A couple of pre-match notes. First, Takuma and Yoshino are a tag team known as the Dino Stones. Takuma has a dinosaur tail on his singlet and Yoshino comes to the ring wearing a Fred Flintstone tunic. They also come armed with prehistoric weaponry, Takuma with a bone and Yoshino with a club. Second, Togo is accompanied by a diminutive fellow with a Hitler mustache.

 

We begin by Takagi demanding that the referee check Yoshino's afro for international objects. The first few minutes are fairly nondescript until Takagi and Takuma square off, leading to the greatest spot in wrestling history. Takagi attacks Takuma by BITING HIS TAIL. And Takuma SELLS IT. The action then spills to the outside, where Team Taka uses Dino Stones' bone and club as weapons. Most of the rest of the match consists of an extended spot involving MAO in the corner and pretty much everyone on the show running into him, including his teammates, Togo's mini-Hitler, and all the wrestlers in the previous matches. I only recognize Ryota Hama and Colt Cabana, but two of the others are dressed as Ryu and Zangief, the latter of whom actually does a spinning clothesline. Even the referee and a cameraman get into the act. It's like a Family Guy joke that starts out as amusing but gets beaten into the ground until it's no longer funny but then comes back around to being funny when they keep going. After all that, MAO actually pins Taka with a schoolboy a second before the ball drops. Happy New Year, Taka.

 

As my writeup indicates, this was just a silly comedy match. But what comedy it was. Seeing Taka smiling and goofing around is quite a change of pace after watching him in Suzuki-gun.
